😋If you’re looking for a healthier take on cheese sauce, be sure to check out this simple recipe!

It’s delicious over veggies, pasta, rice … you name it.

If you live with picky eaters, they don’t need to know this is a vegan or healthy option – at least not until after they’ve tried it and decided they love it!

TIP: If you don’t have a high-speed blender, soak the cashews for about an hour in cold water before blending this up

Vegan Cheese Sauce

(makes 8 servings)

● 1 cup (130 g) peeled & diced white potatoes

● ¼ cup (30 g) carrots, diced

● 3 Tbsp chopped onion

● ½ cup (60 g) raw cashews

● ¼ cup (15 g) nutritional yeast flakes

● 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

● ½ tsp garlic powder

● 1 tsp Dijon mustard

● 1 dash hot sauce, optional

Place the potatoes, carrots, and onion in a medium pot with 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and let cook until tender, about 10-15 minutes.

Carefully drain the pot, saving 1 cup of the broth. Add the reserved broth and veggies to a high-speed blender, blending until smooth.

Add the rest of the ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Serve and enjoy!

This will keep for about a week in the refrigerator.
